Second Communique from Planet Resist

The Council of the Other

The Council of the Other, the decision-making body of Planet Resist, issues the following communique to our friends “below and to the left,” as our compadres, the Zapatistas say.

We have entered into a new Situation. This change has nothing to do with the strength of our movement, although we believe that we are growing stronger. It has nothing to do with new dynamics in society, although we also believe there are new dynamics which favor our direction.

No, the new Situation grows directly from the anger of our mother, the earth who nourishes us. It is born from the exhaust pipes and chemical spew of The Destroyers. It is the result of our neglect, and our passivity, and our ignorance.

It is alarming, and it is necessary that we not hesitate to take action.

The Situation

The scientists of the world say that we have only a decade to turn around the Threat of Global Warming. However, they do not yet have the courage to tell us the full truth about the cause of our demise. That truth we call Consumer Capitalism. It is a system of endless consumption, which leads logically to death and destruction. It is a cancer which is eating our planet.

But, it is also the hypodermic needle which is feeding the addictions of the rich industrial north.

Do you understand this? Do you understand that your wasteful way of life is killing all of humanity? Do you understand that the very system which allows you to thrive must itself be destroyed?

The only way for the people of the earth to survive this coming disaster is for those of us in the rich north to come to a wisdom of Living in Balance. This new Radical Indigenism must grow out of the roots of the native peoples of this land, and of those who have become one with its soil.

Radical Indigenism

First, let us be clear, by Radical Indigenism, we are not referring to the empty intellectual discussions of the bourgeois ndn academics. We are talking here about radical practice to deliver the soil which nurtures our indigenous roots, from the hands of The Destroyers.

Five hundred years ago, the European Invaders brought to these continents the Western Ideology. That ideology has taken many forms as it has subjugated the people of the Amerikas. But in each and every one of its forms, it has promoted an elite hierarchy whose aim has been to extract the blood of the planet not for the betterment of humanity, but for the advancement of the elite, itself.

The capitalisms, and the conservatisms, and the fascisms, and the marxisms and the liberalisms, and the anarchisms are all invasive species. They suck the nutrients from our soil and destroy the ecosystems of the indigenous. Radical Indigenism is about taking back our soil, restoring our ecology, and growing our resistance from these ancient roots.

Who are the Destroyers?

The destroyers are the corrupt politicians, and the transnational corporations which feed their corruptions, and the media whores who soothe us with empty promises of sex and sexy cars, and the christian zealots who soothe us with their quick fix jesus opiates.

This is the army of the elite hierarchy, which we must destroy.

Our mother earth may be patient with us for a time. She may be our ally. But if we do not successfully challenge The Destroyers, she will turn on us as well, for then, we will all be complicit in the destruction.

Strategic Discussion

The Transnational Corporation, Malsanto, is at our doorstep. This company, which once developed Chemical Death for the war in Vietnam, now develops Chemical Death for the farmers of the north and the peasants of the south. It’s ultimate aim is to own a monopoly on life.

EcoSurvival Village calls on all concerned people of Germaine and Wilbur County to attend a discussion at the Germaine Public Library, “What to do about Malsanto.”

The questions will be: What is a Malsanto research facility doing in Wilbur County? How do we stop them? Who will stop them?

The answer to that last one is you, my friends, or no one. Act now.

Meeting: What To Do About Malsanto
Where: Germaine Public Library
When: Saturday, March 3, 1pm
Who: Everyone interested in stopping Malsanto
